Scotty H. Nevers

MERRIL - Scotty H. Nevers, born to Earl O. Nevers and Freda Goodine Nevers, passed into Eternity on 6/25/2025 at his home in Merrill.
Scotty grew up in Merril, attending local schools, and graduated from Ricker Classical institute, then went on to heavy equipment school in Illinois.
Scotty came home and went to work. Scotty worked in the logging industry. He was an astute businessman and also worked as a logging contractor for many years - sometimes employing 100 people. He left the "woods" but not logging - he built a logging yard in New Limerick and simultaneously he contracted with LP to load, unload trucks and "feed the mill" running 24/7 @ LP with a crew he was so very proud of. The best crew anyone could have, he often said.
Scotty was a longtime member of the Bethel Pentecostal Church and would often say, "it is well with my soul". Scotty loved the Lord and prayed for unsaved loved ones daily.
Scotty was predeceased by his parents Earl and Freda Nevers and by two brothers-in-law, Marcus Russell and Otis Shaw.
He is survived by his beloved wife Candy Carmichael Nevers of 21 years; his two sisters, Erlene Russell of Houlton, ME; Jeanette (Ken) Peters of Fort Fairfield, ME. His sons Greg and Tammi Nevers of Oakfield, ME; Dr Christopher and Zana Nevers of Madison, WI; Jamey Roy of New Castle, ME, Misty Roy of Merrill, ME; Sonja York and Ben Williams of Saco, ME; brother-in-law Milford and his wife Lisa Carmichael; his beloved grandchildren - Vanessa (Charlie) Phipps, Jeromy (Missy) Nevers, Adrianna & Dimitri Nevers, Dalton, Mallory and Devon Roy, Hannah and Haley McGary, Winter and Autumn Williams; and 3 great grandchildren, Lillian Phipps, Zoe and Josie Nevers. He dearly loved his bonus grandchildren Matt Bustard & Jennifer Locke; by brothers-in-law and sister-in-law Percy aka Buck (Karen) Carmichal, Raymond (Melanie), Linda Shaw, Dell (Karen) Carmichael and Rodney Carmichael.
